But this is what happens, I suppose: I’ve realized that these baskets are an organizational boon. They hold the standardized size of Molskine notebook o like. They are the right size for the geomancy journals/casebooks I bind by hand. They’ll hold a massive number of Fat Quarters each; many sewing enthusiasts make them in themed colors so they know what kind of fabric is stored in them. I don’t know that I’ll get that far. But I might.

And I’ve just realized that they’re often the perfect size for storing projects-in-process. Each bin is the right size for finished squares of a quilt that haven’t been assembled yet. Which means that having spare bins on hand to store the quilt parts in, is not a bad thing.

Even better, it feels tremendously powerful to be able to make my own storage solutions. No more plastic bins needed. I make my own storage systems now.
